International travel

If you are traveling internationally, you will be required to have a valid United States passport with you. With a passport, you can travel and enter any country in the world and then gain access back to the United States when your vacation is over. If you travel a lot, you may be running out of pages in your passport. If this is the case, you will need to contact a passport agency so they can add pages to it.

Iceland is a unique travel destination that has something to offer everyone.

First day of beer

The first Beer Fest Day was held in 1989. This was the year beer became legal in Iceland. Before that, Iceland banned the sale of beer for health reasons. However, the country still allowed the sale of wine and spirits. Eventually, Iceland came to its senses and, with the rise in tourism, began selling beer to its citizens and travelers alike. Now, on March 1 every year, people flock to Iceland to celebrate the wonderful world of beer. It’s a fun-filled day with people coming from all over the world to enjoy a couple of pints of Iceland’s best beers.

icelandic breweries

Iceland loves its beer. Although there are only a few breweries in Iceland, the citizens love their beer. In honor of the end of their ban, they celebrate the drink every year. On this day, bars are kept open beyond normal operating hours to cater to the masses descending on the country. Beers are discounted on this day and everyone goes out to enjoy the company of the people with a good pint of beer. Icelandic beers are very different from American beers because they use only the cleanest Icelandic waters in their brewing processes.
